Details on the number of households qualified for social housing support in each local authority administrative area and the length of time on waiting lists are provided in the annual statutory Summary of Social Housing Assessments (SSHA).

Below is the link to the summary report for 2021:

The SSHA exercise for 2022 will take place later in the year and the summary published in 2023.

The Housing for All strategy is the Government’s plan to increase the supply of housing to an average of 33,000 per year over the next decade, including an average of 10,000 social homes per annum from 2022-2030. It is anticipated that the new supply will further reduce the wait times for those on the social housing list.
